In 2009, the SDCBA launched Lawyers Giving Back, a year long campaign to promote pro bono work, volunteerism and community service. Community Service has long-been a priority for the SDCBA, however, through this campaign the SDCBA is challenging each of its members to dedicate at least 50 hours this year to volunteer service, which mirrors the American Bar Association's recommended standard for pro bono work.
